Training groups and track booking

Slope bookings are possible for the following slopes in Pyhä: Slope 3 (Piste Palander), 4 (Polar), 6 (North slope Red), and 7 (North Slope Blue & Red). When looking down the slope, track A is on the left side and track B on the right side of the slope, track C is in between A and B.

The information needed for a reservation is date and time, name of the team, name of the coach and his/her phone number, size of the training group, ages of the trainers and the discipline (SL/GS). Notice! Before competitions the exact track and time for training will be decided in coaches meeting which will be held daily.

No other slopes can be booked for training purposes. Please notice that slope bookings are not possible at all when slopes are reserved for public use!  At high seasons (Christmas, New Year, ski holiday weeks 8-10, Easter),  training (including freeskiing) must take place in the slope area reserved for training.

At the beginning of the season, during the busiest training season, and possibly at other times, the exact training shifts and times, taking skill levels into account, are shared on-site in the coaches' daily meetings. At this time, you need to indicate the dates when the team has booked its track shift, the number of participants, and the discipline. We try to offer each team at least 2 training shifts per day. If a date becomes full of track shifts, we will inform you about in when making the reservation.
